Here goes nothing…

I’m about to update to WP 2.5

Updates have gone smoothly in the past, hopefully there will be little (if any) breakage.

Edit: all done – now I just need to find a new theme… (ans see about hacking it so gravatars appears on posts as well as comments…)

I’m parring things down on my blog for a bit. I’m returning to the default theme and removing/deactivating (most of) the plug-ins. I’m going to take a look at WP 2.5 soon, and I want to have a bare-bones(ish) site to install it to. Once the upgrade is complete, I’ll take a look at what my choices are like plug-in wise.

Squiddo – On babies:

January 5th, 2008

“It’s a boy or a girl, we don’t know yet.”
(actually, we do know – this was said before we found out)

When giving good night hugs:
“Good night baby in Mommy’s tummy, I love you. I’ll see you in May.”

“When the baby is ready, Mommy will go to the doctor, and the baby will POP OUT of Mommy’s tummy!”

Honey’s Cranberry Sauce

November 20th, 2007

It’s that time of year again: “The Holidays”

In the spirit of giving and sharing, I would like to share my recipe for cranberry sauce. This sauce is easy to make, and is WAY better than that canned “Jellied Cranberry” stuff you see in stores.

It’s based on my grandmother’s recipe, but I’ve made a couple of minor adjustments in the last couple of years. Most cranberry sauce recipes you’ll find use water and sugar to sweeten the berries. My grandmother used apple juice in place of the water and sugar. What you end up with has a much more complex flavor, and is healthier, too.

Things My Three-Year-Old Has to Say

November 9th, 2007

The Squiddo is like any other toddler. Talkative, opinionated, and sometimes, too darn smart for his own good. The quotes below have all been heard coming from our little guy in recent weeks. It’s a good thing he’s so cute, or some of these would be infuriating.
